Wonder if that wheel will come as part of the "M" package for the new e70?

Larsdutch,

I've been thinking about it for the last month, what style could it be,

Its def. not 4.8is style 20's, and it def looks more style 141 over E60 M5 wheels.

Mazda 6 have a Mazda 6 sports here in Australia, it is a 17inch wheel - this is probably the closest style i can think - i'd believe it was a 21inch wheel thats in the photo, keep in mind official aero kit photos/marketing for BMW has the 7 series 21 inch wheels, but for the pic used in LeMans' sig, it could?? possibly be photoshoped. Once again, wheels in motion usually show their true pattern, and ie think Mazda 6 sports' 17 inch with a touch of style 141, as you've just mentioned

does anyone know if any of the discussed wheels could be used with all season tires? I dont like how the 19's look (want 20 or bigger) but i live in nyc and have no room for winter/snow tires and have been told by many friends that "performance" tires on their bmws have been fairly slippery in wet/snowy weather. also since i wont have a spare i guess i need runflats, are these all compatible there?

After flicking through my latest copy of EVO magazine (issue 100) there is an article on the 335d coupe. The 335 diesel coupe wheels are 17" style 188 and would appear to be what are shown on the X5 below, albeit in 21" size. Can anyone please confirm this?
